We have Confessions to make…
EPISODE 492
The queen of pop has returned this summer with Confessions II: an album full of huge hooks, pounding bass, and sincere emotion. It’s Madonna’s first record in seven years, and serves as a sequel to her 2005 smash hit, Confessions on a Dance Floor. The record ties together threads that have existed throughout Madonna’s entire discography, but it also serves a greater purpose. Confessions II is Madonna’s biopic, allowing her to tell her story on her own terms.
